California blues two-fer

Here's a batch of editorial cartoons about California's various woes, mostly financial.


Michael Ramirez comparing California to Greece's financial ills.  Honestly California is not as bad as that. And in truth Greece remains wealthier than most nations on the planet... both that's all cold comfort to those who are suffering.


The next three are by Steve Breen, debuting on the blog.  I'll take issue with this critique as well: If California is such an oppressively difficult state in which to start or do business, why does Silicon Valley remain there and, frankly, thriving? But that's just one industry sector.  I'm sure none of the other industries in the state are doing any good.


And the worst for last. Yeah, it's effectively the same joke that Ramirez made, but Mr. Asay's work tends to be rather venomously odious. This one's fairly mild.
